Antique Korean Ceramic Komogai Chawan with Tamagode Glaze
Located in Atlanta, GA
A ceramic tea bowl with milky white glaze made in Korea for Japanese market circa 16-17th century.
The thinly potted bowl is in the shape called Hatazori-gata (curving-lip type) that is known as Komogai (or Kumagawa) type. It was named after the historical port of Komogai, close to Bushan in Gyongsangnam-do, southern coast of Korea, where these bowls were traded and exported to Japan in the 16-17th century. The white glaze that covers nearly the entire surface resembles the color and texture of eggshell, therefore is known as Tamago-de. This type of glaze is rather rare, and few examples exist. It was believed that the Tamago-de glaze was only made in Korea from late 16th to mid-17th century during Japan's Edo period.
The tea bowl on offer bears typical characteristic of Tamago-de glaze. The smooth milky color glaze shows a fine crackle with scattered spots of flakes exposing the dark clay underneath. The glaze on the rim was largely worn off, so was on the base. There is a subtle indentation on the bottom of the interior known as kagami (tea pool). The ring base is relatively thick compared to the base and trimmed by the potter's knife. It appears delicate to the eyes, but it feels strong in the hands.
The bowl comes with a fabric pouch...

Marble Roman relief representing a Christogram
Located in Bruxelles, BE
Marble Roman relief representing a Christogram
Roman relief - 4th century
25 x 22 x 8 cm
Provenance :
Collection of the Château de B. À Nevers by Georges C.S., scholar born in 1833 and deceased in 1909
The entire castle and its collections were acquired in 1938 by the current owners of the estate
A christogram is a monogram or combination of letters that forms an abreviation for the name of Jesus Christ.
This rare fragment combines chi (X) and rho (P), the first two letters of Christ's name in Greek and it is one of the oldest and most popular early christian symbol. The monogram of Christ, or chrismon, is also a powerful symbol of imperial victory: it appeared to Emperor Constantine the Great before his battle against Maxentius in ad 312, promising victory in the name of Christ. In Plato's Timaeus, it is explained that the two bands which form the "world soul" (anima mundi...
